Text Messaging Featured Article

In the company's official announcement and on its website, MeTesto says text messaging is an addiction. People are constantly in contact with their phones, having them at the office, at home, while they travel, and even when they sleep. People do not want to miss important text messages from their friends and associates, and that reality extends both into the personal and professional realms.

That is why MeTesto recently announced the launch of its professional business text messaging service. The original MeTesto service allowed individuals to schedule text messages that the services would send to a person's contacts according this or her schedule. Now, the Professional service, for organizations and businesses, extends that idea by allowing corporations to utilize contact management, sort contacts by various demographics, and manage employees with permission levels and capabilities.

These features can allow businesses to target groups of people with specific messages that tailor to their needs. If a business in question sells clothing, for instance, it can shoot a message to all its male clients regarding an upcoming sale on men's jackets. Similarly, if the company is having a promotion concerning children's clothing, it can target contacts it knows to be parents.

MeTesto allows businesses to arrange an unlimited number of contacts, and an unlimited number of lists -- sales or promotions for instance -- through its Web-based portal. Its central control panel provides businesses with all the control they need to manage their entire systems of contacts and employees. The service can work without business partners using their own mobile phones because everything is directed through the online dashboard.

Users can create new messages or sift through message templates to announce upcoming business products or features. Previously sent messages are also saved within the online system. Users can upload individual contacts or entire files or names and mobile numbers, and they can immediately add new contacts to groups to better define them by their individual demographics. Company managers and employees can also configure their personal settings within the dashboard so people receiving texts will always know who is trying to reach them.
